In the Philippines, the bulk of contributions are centered around where imagery is available. Yahoo! has allowed imagery tracing almost 4 years ago and this helped expand data contributions in Metro Manila and Davao.

Perhaps your town is listed. You can start editing now and make the best map of your town in Openstreetmap. Full details on how to use the data is available in the wiki.
